Would you look at that! An episode that wasn't a confusing mess. So we're down to only one IFO team and we get a tiny snippet of Elena backstory, great time to introduce backstory Bones, when you only have 5 episodes left.

I'm also beginning to wonder if Renton is actually going to show up or if he is just being used as a giant tease in the OP.

I think he'll show up around the ending. I'm about 75% sure. I am basing this on nothing but gut feeling here though.

The 'reveal" of Truth being a Secret was so obvious that I shouldn't even be pointing it out. I'm pretty sure they already mentioned that bit of Elena's past before, I just forget the episode. I'm glad she's just acting how she wants now and we still get Seele references.

This episode was kinda meh until the last few minutes. The second Fleur got out that gun it got awesome though.

I totally saw Spoiler:- ...:

The President/Fleur's Dad's death coming from the second he mentioned the will. Either way he still went out awesomely, even though I still have some doubts Truth is dead.

And the full version of the opening is online. I don't care if the anime has a good ending at this point since we got that amazing kickass song out of it. So worth it. The track also came with a kind of remix of Days but with some AO style to it. Will that be what they use for the final episode? We'll see.

Spoiler:- I'm assuming you didn't watch the preview because:

It showed Truth does indeed survive (not that that's a surprise.)

I bought it off iTunes yesterday (the fact that the Australian iTunes store is starting to add FLOW's stuff is amazing in itself) and I'm freaking loving the full version, speaking of the OP, have you seen how well Days and BravBlue sync up with each other's video?

No, I don't watch previews. I did hear about it online though, and I'm not surprised.

I did notice, in fact I was watching that first video you linked just yesterday. I'm still waiting for someone to make a mashup of Eureka Seven and COLORS by FLOW. If you let the song run for about 10 seconds the opening matches fairly well.

Those "fortress-class" IFOs reminded me of the robots from Castle in the Sky.

Flashbacks of Elena with Eureka were also shown in the episode where Elena was revealed to be posing as Miller. Elena's actions regarding Ao and Eureka also hint at her history.

I do think the development in the latest episode for Fleur and Christophe seemed late, though. They weren't shown doing much in previous episodes, yet suddenly they are trying to take down a main antagonist?

If they're trying to appease fans of the original series, we're missing the romance element! Maybe Ao will get together with Fleur in the last four episodes with the power of the shoehorn!

100% of information in signatures on this forum involving percentages is false. If you feel as cheated by this atrocity as I do, don't you dare copy this into your signature.
Hold on... if this percentage was correct at the time of print, that means the actual percentage of false information is less than 100% if this signature is included. Which means that... no! I've become a slave to the system!!

Ao is more likely to end up with Fleur than anyone at this point, which feels weird because at the beginning of the series I was almost sure he'd be with Naru. Then again, if they have the power to shoehorn Fleur like TotalPotato said then they could just as easily shoehorn Naru instead.

In the first three or so episodes it seemed like Ao and Naru were pretty much together already, but then all the confusing **** happened and now it's almost impossible to guess which relationship (if any) gets rushed into. Maybe Ao x Georg?

Of the suggested pairings, I think Ao x Noah makes the most sense. After all, if you reverse Ao's name, it fits snugly inside Noah.

TheEnd probably got absorbed by the Scub Coral and carried back in time like the Gekko did. There were also what appeared to be some bits of other KLFs in the Quartz.

Team Harlequin explained that they "betrayed" Pied Piper because they were wary of fighting. Generation Bleu assumed that their satellite was taken down by the United Forces, so they are being cautious.

Unless a triple episode is aired next week, the chances are we won't see the final two episodes until the last two BD volumes are released on January 29th, 2013 (Volune 8 Ep 23) and Febuary 22nd, 2013 (Volume 9 Ep 24.)

EDIT: So Elena is from the past or something, can they make her character any more confusing? Just bring back the simple otaku girl please.

It's also looking more and more likely that Renton is going to get 5 minutes of screen time just to pander to fans of the original series.

How come?

Looks like this week was the conclusion to Elena's "character arc". All that other world bull was wrong and she's just from the past. Turns out she's just as confused and pissed as the rest of us. Fitting really. Ao snaps her out of it with his generic speeches as usual and it's a happy ending. Until Truth comes for the extreme creepy close up, roll credits.

I love that moment when Ao says "I want to be with you!" and Elena gets all excited. Then her face slowly drops into disappointment as Ao includes the other Generation Bleu members AND HIS GODDAMN SLOTH.
